Target Audience
This program is intended for medical oncologists, hematologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other allied healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of prostate cancer.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to
- Appraise published research findings and current guideline recommendations on optimal management approaches for biochemical recurrence after local treatment for prostate cancer, and counsel appropriate patients about the potential benefits of systemic therapy.
- Evaluate the published research database supporting the FDA approvals of secondary hormonal agents in the management of nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, and apply this information in the discussion of nonresearch treatment options for patients.
- Explore available data with cytotoxic and secondary hormonal therapy for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer to design effective treatment plans for patients.
- Establish an evidence-based approach to the selection and sequencing of available therapeutic options for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), considering age, comorbidities, prior therapeutic exposure and other clinical and biologic factors.
- Assess the available and emerging research database supporting the use of PARP inhibitors for patients with mCRPC, and discern how to optimally incorporate these agents into current and future clinical management algorithms.
- Appreciate available Phase III data documenting the efficacy of PSMA-targeted radioligand therapy in patients with progressive PSMA-positive mCRPC, and consider the potential clinical role of this strategy.
- Recall the design of ongoing clinical trials evaluating other novel agents and strategies for prostate cancer, and counsel appropriate patients about availability and participation.
